SANITARY CRISES
In the context of the present Covid 19 crisis, JoRISS intends to stimulate reflection and research on the topic of sanitary crises in general. As revealed in full light by the Covid 19 pandemia, such crises can reach a war-like power of destabilization and destruction, and they remain a threat to all contemporary societies, and not only to the less developed ones. They constitute extremely complex events with numerous interconnected dimensions ranging the whole scientific spectrum, from biological and medical research to the fields of mathematical modeling, economics, urban studies, history or law, to mention just a few. Proposals dealing with any of these multifarious aspects of sanitary crises are eligible.
B. Free topic Projects:
The 11th Call is also open, without any topic limitation, to all research projects satisfying the JoRISS conditions of eligibility.
